About the Item
Marble carving of the elephant headed four armed Hindu God Ganesha. With traces of old paint, it now has a rich honey patina from years of devotees touching the surface. Shown seated on a throne in the yoga pose, sukhasana, cross legged meditation pose. Two of his hands grasp a battle axe and a lasso, symbols of his role as a rescuer and protector. His other two hands hold an elephant goad and one of his own tusks, which he broke off in a fit of anger. His rat vehicle is below him.
A great gift for the yogi or yogini in your life. Every home should have one.
17.25 inches high 9 wide 3 deep
Ganesha, the son of Shiva and Parvati, is a Hindu deity known to clear a path to the gods and remove obstacles in everyday life. He is loved by his devotees (bhakti) for his many traits, including his insatiable appetite for sweet cakes and his role as a dispenser of magic, surprise, and laughter. However, Ganesha is also the lord of ganas (nature deities) and can take on a fearsome aspect in this guise. Ganesha is also invoked as patron of letters and learning.
